ikanreed posted:If you read together, my son adored the game of "dad misreads a word and gives him a moment between words to correct him" it teaches that reading is a thing where mistakes happen and makes being read to a less passive activity. oh nice one, we read every night. i'll give that a shot, thanks Microplastics posted:Me playing any videogame

RBC posted:my kid was never in daycare before kindergarten and was pretty much isolated from other kids her age with a few exceptions from 2020-2022 for obvious reasons and i was worried about her socialization based on all these parents freaking out about it have this similar story and it was a huge relief that she seemed to adapt so well to all those new people after years of just seeing family and kids at parks

it's good but the first 15 minutes can be scary cause the cat falls away from its family I did not know this when she started playing the cat game and she was very upset. she came up with a plan to rent a different copy from the library and save the cat this time, ruled, but she was really upset lol also all the humans are dead (never shown) but idk if she didn't get that or didn't care

Son of Thunderbeast posted:I've been playing the Bluey game with my kid, and the other day after we got the first map piece I let her play solo while I went off and did some chores. When we came back to the game the next day, she asked for my help with getting a map piece, so I figured sure why not let's get the second one. Helped her out and got the map piece.... the third one. Turns out she'd played an entire episode and gotten the second map piece without my help whatsoever lol hell yes Mustached Demon posted:Teachers said my 4yo is the nicest, most helpful kid in the class congrats

we went to see Wonka yesterday (good movie, enjoyed it) because it was the only movie she could go to. originally she wasn't even interested in it but then it was the only option lol anyway, she had a great time, lasted till like 10 min before it ended before she needed to go exploring. some younger kids were running around and she wanted in, and I don't think she has many more run around the theater with other kids before she will be too old for it so gently caress it have fun. we got outside and she had a big tantrum because... I still don't know lol stormed off and sat by a light post for a bit before coming back, I guess she didn't like the way I asked her to get in the car

Mustached Demon posted:yeah potty training is a war of attrition where it's totally ok to pull back, regroup, and come at it stronger yes what finally worked for us was to have the whole family sit in the bathroom for a while when we thought she hadn't needed a diaper change in a long time and then shower her with praise when she finally just started peeing in the toilet

our daughter struggled with big toilets forever, and only recently (kindergarten) would she use the toilets at school to pee, but she still won't poop at school. kids really move at their own pace on these things and all you can do is be there and support them while they adapt sounds like a lot of stress and it might help to remember it's just a bump in the path, best wishes

echoing the Mario kart sentiment in here, otherwise I had a lot of fun playing Mario RPG with my kindergarten kid, let her do the world map and read the dialogue to her. most Mario games especially the 3d world one have been good for her to game and for family gaming

the more I reflect on it and hear about Roblox, the more it seems like a really poorly thought out pipeline to abuse in the same way that yahoo chat from 1995-2006 was, but with the added 3d models and monetization I fear for when I have to be the bad dad who says no way to the cool thing other kids are enjoying
